Quiescent’s range of mains cables removes this energy before it reaches your electronics, bringing about an unprecedented level of realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA clean power supply is critical to extract the most out of any audio or video system. However, with a world full of computers, high-speed switches and digital electronics, the mains supply consists of much more than the basic sinusoidal signal assumed when all audio and video electronics are designed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing proprietary EMI extraction and cable construction, the Peak prevents much of this high-frequency noise from entering the power supplies of audio components. The cables can be used a direct replacement for other power cords or partnered with the award-winning Peak Mains Modules to allow components to perform at their maximum potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the Apex mains cables remain the pinnacle of Quiescent's cable range, the Peak mains cables offer an excellent option for customers wanting to spend less on their mains looms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Peak cables use the same labour-intensive techniques as the Apex range but, to make them more affordable, have less expensive materials to meet the target price point. The solid core conductors used are an exceptional quality oxygen free copper which is plated with 10% silver. One each of these for live, neutral earth is manually threaded into a Teflon™ tube with an air dielectric for low cable capacitance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the Apex, the conductors in their Teflon™ sheathing are then threaded through proprietary EMI absorption tubing that safely dissipates high-frequency energy without using a ground connection. This is critical because ground-connected sheathed cables are usually more detrimental to the performance of high-end audio systems because they pollute the ground with the high-frequency standing waves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole cable is then sheathed in an acoustic braiding that has low mechanical transfer properties ensuring that the path of vibration is where we want it – in the conductors themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTerminations for the Peak use high quality plugs that passed our stringent tests on conductivity and mechanical contact but are less expensive compared to their Apex counterparts. Mechanical contact is a particularly important factor since it is a fundamental requirement for our vibration control and absorption matrix technology in our Peak modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll this results in a cable that achieves approximately 80% of the performance of the Apex for customers with more modest budget expectations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Peak Mains Cables are available with three different plug options, MSHD UK13A Silver plug, Schuko, and Neutrik powerCON.
